My specialties

Labor and Employment Law

We advise companies and executives on all aspects of employment law. We support you in drafting contracts, developing personnel and remuneration models and help you to develop tailor-made concepts for your company. Our clients appreciate the fact that we develop pragmatic and tailor-made solutions as a daily point of contact for management and the HR department.

Restructuring, outsourcing, reorganization and turnaround situations

A competent and solution-oriented partner is needed to manage the increasing complexity for entrepreneurs and companies, but also for employees. I see myself as such. With more than twenty-five years of practical experience in various positions of responsibility in industrial companies, as well as my work as a lawyer, I am familiar with the concerns and needs of entrepreneurs and companies, but also of employees. My approach has always been to find pragmatic, successful solutions in the interests of the company, based on in-depth knowledge of the relevant area of law.

Compliance

Companies, their executive bodies and employees have to know and observe a large number of sometimes complex rules. If violations occur, there is not only the threat of criminal and civil law consequences, but often also reputational damage and business losses. The scope of the rules, their complexity and the level of sanctions have been steadily increasing for years. At the same time, companies are losing money because they are not taking advantage of business opportunities due to excessive caution. With our many years of experience, we help you to identify and objectively assess risks without ignoring or over-dramatizing them.

More about me

The context in which many companies and entrepreneurs, as well as employees, operate today is becoming increasingly complex due to advancing digitalization, internationalization and globalization.
This has a tangible and direct impact on all those involved, not least due to the plethora of legal regulations within which companies, employers and employees now have to navigate and find their way around.

Regulations that are applied in the course of restructuring, outsourcing, reorganization and turnaround situations, but also works constitution law and collective bargaining law are just a few examples.

Career

I studied law at the Ruprecht-Karls-University in Heidelberg. I completed my doctorate on the subject of “German and Austrian Works Constitution Law – A Comparison from a Legal History Perspective” at the Private University in the Principality of Liechtenstein, Triesen, under Professor Dr. Bernd Waas (Goethe University Frankfurt/Main).

I completed my legal clerkship in Darmstadt. I was admitted to the bar in 1995 and have been a specialist lawyer for employment law since 1999. In addition to my work as a lawyer, I held various management positions, first at a company of the Deutsche Bahn Group, then at a subsidiary of Deutsche Telekom AG, then at Brückner Maschinenbau GmbH and finally for almost twelve years at HOERBIGER Holding AG, for the HOERBIGER Group. In the last five years there, I was Chief Human Resources Officer and a member of the Group Executive Board.
